When I first came to the USA , I made friends with a neighbor who used to live only two blocks away from my street. We used to visit each other and go out together sometimes . This friend taught me a lot about American 21 , but in some cases I had to learn the 22 way, because we didn’t have enough time together for me to learn all about American culture from him.
One day this same friend invited me to a party. It wasn’t a (n) 23 party, only some kind of informal get-together. Since it was summer time, we had a cookout, where most of his American friends and relatives were known to me, but there were others I had never met before.
It was the most 24 party for me when I noticed that everybody was wearing jeans and simple T-shirts for the day, 25 I arrived in proper dress with my shoes and my hair all fixed for a fancy party. It was hard to explain my embarrassment(窘迫)to the other 26 . When one of them turned around and said, “What nice clothes! What’s the occasion?” I felt my face burning hot, I didn’t answer at all. If she knew how bad I already felt, she wouldn’t have said that to me.
Maybe she didn’t 27 to make me feel uncomfortable, but my reaction had to do with the way I already felt.

Rubber ducks are being used to help scientists understand global warming and melting glaciers. NASA researchers have 21 90 ducks into holes in Greenland's fastest moving glacier, the Jakobshavn Glacier between Greenland and Canada. The 22 have each been marked with the words "science experiment" along with an e-mail address. If they are found scientists will be able to 23 how the water moves through the ice and provide information about the 24 of glaciers. Scientists are still 25 about why glaciers speed up in summer and head towards the sea. One theory is that as the summer sun melts ice on top of the glacier's surface, the water moves to the bottom of the glacier, where it helps to 26 the movement of ice toward the coast. The Jakobshavn Glacier is believed to be the 27 of the iceberg that sank the Titanic in 1912. Robert Jones, the experiment organizer, said none of the ducks had been 28 yet. "We haven't heard back but it may take some time until somebody actually finds it and decides to send us a/an 29 that they have found it," he said. "These are places that are 30 so there aren't people walking around."

The purpose of a letter of application is to help you to “sell” yourself. It should state 16 the job you want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have 17 . It should be simple, personal and brief without leaving out any necessary fact.
In writing a letter of application, keep in 18 that the things a possible employer is most 19 to want to know about are your achievements and your aims. The opening paragraph is perhaps the most important part. If the first few sentences fail to draw the reader’s attention, the rest of the letter may not be read at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs or interests of your employer. For example, instead of beginning with “I saw your 20 in today’s paper,” you might say “I have made a careful study of your advertising during the past six months” or “I have made a survey in my neighborhood to find out how many housewives use your product and why they like it.”
Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now 21 . College graduates looking for their first positions often ask “What can I 22 in a letter? Employers want experience, which, naturally, no 23 has.” The answer is that everything you have ever done is experience.
It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter. 24 a specific request for an interview or give the possible employer something definite(明确的) to do or expect. An excellent idea is to enclose(内附) a stamped self-addressed envelope with your letter. That makes it 25 for a possible employer to get in touch with you.
